Buching Flight Home – Back to Back 3rd Place Finishes!

Unibet_Djinn — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 21:12:04 +0000

Joachim Buch has been eliminated, shoving over a Skaj preflop raise with 9-T suited. Unfortunately for the young Norwegian, Skaj held , and duly busted him. He picks up €74,175, and a bitter-sweet result but another great finish for the promising player.

Skaj High

Unibet_Djinn — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 21:07:22 +0000

Anthon-Pieter Wink reraises preflop to 220k, and the chip leader makes the call.

The flop: . Now Skaj check-raised all-in, picking up at least 150k of Wink’s chips which he bet on the flop – only to quickly fold! This move has worked out well for him on this final – he’s done it four times in the last hour and the hammer-wielding Swede seems to be using his large stack to the best advantage at the moment.
